Coverage & How Much You Need:
One piece or box covers the roof edge length of the selected profile; measure total eave and rake linear footage, then order enough pieces with the standard overlap between sections to complete the perimeter.
Fit and Compatibility:
Installs along eaves and rakes under the first course of shingles and pairs with standard gutters; hemmed variants suit exposed edges where a finished look is wanted. Match color to your TopShield or other aluminum trim components for a uniform edge.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: What colors are available?
A: Black, White, Brown, Bronze, Clay and Weathered Wood across the 45-variant line.
Q: How much do I need for my roof?
A: Measure the total eave and rake length, add the overlap per section, and order that linear footage in the chosen profile.
Q: What is the difference between standard, premium and hemmed?
A: They are different product styles in the same line; hemmed versions have a folded edge for stiffness and finish, per the item descriptions.
Q: Does it go under or over the underlayment?
A: Eave drip edge is commonly installed over the underlayment at the eave per standard practice; follow your shingle manufacturer's details.
Q: How is it sold?
A: Depending on the variant, it sells per piece, per box or per bundle.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Match drip edge depth to the fascia so water sheds into the gutter, not behind it; wider 5 in. and 6 in. profiles cover deeper fascia or wider overhangs. Use .032 aluminum on long rake runs or in hail-prone areas where flimsier metal dents. On wind-exposed edges, fasten drip edge at close intervals and overlap sections in the direction of water flow.
Aluminum drip edge edges are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection when cutting and fastening.
Order TopShield Aluminum Eave Drip Edge Flashing in the color, profile and gauge your roof edge needs.
